if Tor is rage
he is an powerful energy
and not just a thing.
I see him as an complete universe within himself
like you and me,and can be experienced,like a state of mind,a powerful one in this case.
I once experienced the presence of Frøya during a struggle with chaotic darkness
I remember her like a giant spirit vision with an eye of love staring at me,and telling me i was in good company.
From my experiences with gods i have come to understand them as existing in an altered state,and can be invoced or called upon
for guidance and vision,by going into an altered state.
So They are actual beings in my perception,live ones,with alert ears and conscious tentacles, listening to our talk here on the zone.
I have come to understand that the gods appear for guidance and support with someone whom
they find sympathetic,and from what i have read from peruvian shamanism,the shaman adept seeking help from the gods
must endure long periods of fasting and solitude,to recieve the gods symphaty and congress for the aquiring of shaman power to heal and shift shape.
So i guess its not just a matter of knicking the heels together,the gods do exist,but will not help one in the aquiring of money,if one already has a bunch.
